Q. When did The Woken Trees start? Tell us about the history of the band...
A: We have all known each other since our early teens, where we used to skate, party and listen to music together. The Woken Trees started when the six of us moved to an abandoned house in the suburbs of Copenhagen. We started writing songs in the cold and gloomy cellar of the house.

Q: Who are your influences?
A: There are so many great bands that have inspired us and to list just a few seems almost ungrateful. But we have to mention; Wovenhand, The Black Angels, Health, Low, Glifted, Warlocks, A Place To Bury Strangers, Joy Division, The Soft Moon, The Seeds, The Open Mind etc. etc. etc. Thanks guys!

Q. How do you feel playing live?
A: We attend to accomplish the same stages as a magic/religious ritual. The rhythm, the repetition and hopefully a transcendental experience. It is our aim that the audience is going through the same thing, whether they enjoy it or not.

Q. How would you describe the sound of The Woken Trees?
A: Dark, heavy, aggressive and frequently noisy.

Q: Tell us about the process of recording NNON?
A: Though we recorded the album live, it was surprisingly easy to do. We rented a studio for six days and recorded everything live except the vocals. We had to call upon the gods in order to capture those lyrics.

Q. Which new bands do you recommend?
A: The Blue Angel Lounge, Get Your Gun, Uncle Acid And the Deadbeats, The Beardy Durfs and The Wands are definitely worth a listen or 5.000.

Q: If you should make a cover version of another band, what would it be?
A: 1000 Mexicans: Diving for Pearls.

Q: What's your plans for the future....
A: Our plan is to tour a lot, write a shitload of new songs and hopefully record them.
